Sgt. Matt Haywood of the Royal Airforce and Royal Airforce BMX Racing Team sent us photos of this amazing looking ICE BMX F-118 Cruiser Limited Edition. You know we had to feature it as Bike Of The Day!! The stealth Black Pearl colorway with blue highlights on this bike is sick. And we love the details and craftsmanship on the rear dropouts! It’s so cool how the disc brakes are integrated into this frame.
“So this is my first foray into cruisers. Been an avid 20” rider since I got into racing at the age of 9 back in 1984. This build was tenderly put together by DC Cycles in Southampton here in the UK who are one of the Co Sponsors for the Royal Air Force BMX Racing team that I ride and manage for. Our principle team sponsor is Potter Racing in Grayston GA who make our custom kit and plates. Would also like to thank John Webber at Vee Tyre Co for providing me with the tyres at no cost.” ~Matt Haywood
